This was a gift from our pre-marital counselors and written by the former rector of our church. It got me consciously practicing prayer for and around my family. It’s a little wordy. Lots of tools and tips to choose from.

Reconvicts on the joy of prayer.

Best idea for me from whole book--write down your prayers, and much more joy in God will you have when you remember what you prayed for and you now see it answered.
